ATPL Manuals
In 1997, Oxford Aviation Academy (OAA) created a detailed ground training syllabus for the new JAR-FCL
ATPL, playing a central and key role in delivering the official JAR-FCL ATPL theoretical knowledge. During
the period leading up to the introduction of the new JAR-FCL syllabus in 2000, OAA took the decision
to develop JAR-FCL ATPL theoretical knowledge manuals. Since then, our ATPL manuals have become
the standard material used by ATPL student pilots and training organisations around the world for the
completion of ATPL theoretical knowledge training.
Our series of 14 manuals comprehensively covers the EASA ATPL learning objectives. The manuals provide
students with the knowledge they require to become safe and competent pilots and to prepare them for the
EASA ATPL examinations. There are many illustrative diagrams that help to explain the more difficult concepts
and the majority of chapters include multiple choice questions which allow students to check their progress.

RT Communication CBT
We provide further details about this particular subject on this page due to the common challenge
experienced by student pilots when starting to work with the radio communication.
These interactive CBT courses provide students with a comprehensive understanding of the effective use of
radiotelephony communications. Animations together with audio sequences, give the student a complete
picture of the air-traffic situation. The product range includes complete VFR and IFR flight scenarios.
The VFR RT CBT uses international ICAO RT procedures and phraseology to teach the RT skills required
when flying in accordance with the Visual Flight Rules (VFR) anywhere in the world. This CBT will also help the
student to prepare for the JAA/EASA Communications examination and for the RT Operator’s Licence test.
The VFR RT UK Airspace Supplement CBT is intended to complement the main VFR RT CBT. It contains
lessons on the differences in UK RT procedures from those of ICAO and is designed for students who do
most of their flying in UK airspace.
The IFR RT CBT is designed to follow on from the international VFR RT CBT and complies with ICAO IFR
RT procedures. Its main purpose is to provide pilots preparing for an Instrument Rating test with practical
instruction in IFR RT skills.
The CBT courses are available as CD-ROMs, to be installed on PCs (home study), or they can be accessed
online through our learning management system. The prices listed below refer to the CD version or 1-year
online subscription. For more subscription options and details please visit our website.

Mathematics & Physics CBT
It is necessary for student pilots to have a thorough understanding of Mathematics and Physics concepts.
This CBT series is an excellent option for those who need to brush-up their knowledge and skills in these
subjects prior to commencing pilot studies. The CBT is a comprehensive, self-teach course comprising fully
interactive lessons, vivid graphics, animations and in-depth narration that enables the student to grasp even
the most difficult concepts.
These courses are suitable either for revision or to teach oneself from scratch. As well as being aimed at
those at school (covering the topics examined in the GCSE), this CBT is also suitable for the adult learner
at work or in further education.
The CBT courses are available only as CD-ROMs at the moment.

materials, facilities and support tools to enable your instructors to fulfil their role to the highest standards,
inspiring students to master the theoretical knowledge they require to become safe and competent pilots.
Our training materials combine the world-renowned technical and teaching expertise of CAE Oxford Aviation
Academy specialist ground instructors and the multimedia design talents of the Interactive Learning team.
Our materials provide training organisations with an effective foundation to support the delivery of ground
training programs.
The prices listed in this guide refer to Individual User Licences – purchased for self-study.

Learning Management
System (LMS)
The CAE Oxford Interactive LMS is a web-based platform which features online CBT and enables instructors
to deliver content and to monitor student participation and performance. It also enables instructors to handle
a range of administrative tasks including the creation of reports on content viewed and student exam grades.
Our LMS is based on a world leading open source software used by universities globally including the
London School of Economics and the Open University. It is very customisable and scalable. This means that
we can develop a bespoke interface for the LMS using our school partners’ own branding so that it fully
integrates with their training delivery.
The LMS offers different options when it comes to delivering ground school training. For example, the online
CBT can be used in conjunction with classroom instruction for the delivery of specific modules (where
instructors direct students to complete CBT lessons, supplementing the in-class training). Students can also
access the CBT lessons as a revision tool.
The flexibility of the LMS enables us to tailor the interface, features and content as required, based on the
training preferences and requirements of our school partner.
Classroom CBT
Within our range of CBT, there are thousands of images and animations which can support instructors’
explanations throughout ground school classes. Ground instructors may find our range of CBT to be of great
support for their classroom instruction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I choose manuals or CBT?
Both the manuals and the CBT comprehensively cover the theory of their relevant subject matter but do so
in different ways.
The CBT includes audio, illustrations, animations and key phrases. Due to the combination of these
elements, students progress faster through their studies with the CBT.
On the other hand, the manuals will explain the topics through text and illustration. In order to explain the
theory well, more text is used so the manuals cover the subjects in more detail than the CBT.
The decision regarding which one to use is according to the student’s preference as both cover the required
knowledge. Using both the manuals and the CBT materials is a powerful combination because students
get different perspectives on the same content, stimulating the memory and having more references to help
their learning process. However, it is not required to use them together as each format is self-contained.
What are the system requirements to run the CBT?
At this moment, the CBT only runs on Windows operational system. The CD-ROM version requires the PC
to have a CD-drive and the CD must be inserted in the drive for the CBT to run. The online version requires
Flash and Shockwave plugins to be installed on the internet browser.
Can I install the CBT onto different computers?
Yes, for the CD version, you would just need to have the CD inserted in the CD-drive of the PC you wish
to run the CBT. For the online version, you can access from any PC connected to the Internet using your
personal login details.
Can I access the CBT offline?
The CBT cannot be downloaded. At the moment, the option to run the CBT offline is the purchase of the
CD-ROM version.
